The only change is that the part would need to end up in Munich or Regensburg. This assuming, much like the DCT being shared, the drivetrain is essentially also shared.
With all due respect, you have no idea what you are talking about. Cars are not Lego sets.

I have many years as lead engineer in the product development of machinery and instrumentation. I also managed the manufacturing engineering group on the operations side. The stuff I've worked on is dwarfed by cars in terms of scope and logistics. The amount of effort to properly bring a product like that to market with the level of quality needed so that people don't bitch and moan incessantly on car forums is simply mind-blowing. To trivialize that is ignorance.
